    Okay, here’s the 4-1-1: Four men delve into science and figure out that ghosts are real and can be contained. It seems like this would change everything we ever thought about the afterlife. Hmmm… better to not think too hard about this.

    Kids, this is the story of how this ghost-busting show came to syndication.

    Who created this clever idea?

    Where did that earworm theme song come from?

    Twinkies? Why did it have to be Twinkies?

    All these questions, and more, will be answered in this look at THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS!

    Thanks for 'tooning in!

    In the Summer of 1975, the movie "Jaws" was released, and everything changed. Summer became something children looked forward to, and it spawned imitators. In true Saturday Morning fashion, Hanna-Barbera realized they needed to get back into the water find their "Jaws". Here now is the story of JABBERJAW, the friendliest shark in the seas. Explore the creation, cast, and legacy of this classic mid-70s show.

    Okay, here’s the 4-1-1: Take an action hero, make him a secret government operative and send him on dangerous missions. They can involve super computers, the space shuttle and bombs, sweet, sweet bombs. And just for good measure, he should always travel with a pack of children who should not be involved. Unless they’re un-blow-up-able.

    Kids, this is the story of how this martial arts show came to syndication.

    What is this show’s connection with Scooby-Doo?

    Who is the title character? I mean, they barely ever say it.

    Why was this so short-lived?

    All these questions, and more, will be answered in this look at CHUCK NORRIS: KARATE KOMMANDOS!

    Spirits and demons beware! Back in 1975, someone said, “If we make a show with a catchy name, someone will probably have a similar idea and want to buy the name from us”. Sounds reasonable. That’s why I can never release my novel, “The Six Million Dollar Man”. It has nothing to do with bionics. It’s the epic story of a man with $5,999,990 and that lucky day he found a Hamilton on the street. I’m stuck on that title, and refuse to change it. I’ll win one day, Lee Majors!

    Anyways… This is the story of Filmation’s Ghost Punchers who came all the way from “F-Troop” to partner with a gorilla and save the day. Brace yourselves for THE GHOST BUSTERS!

    Okay, here’s the 4-1-1: A line of toys with no story gets it’s own show. Time to start shoe-horning in the personalities. And adding plants and vines and all the cool stuff kids love. And a wizard. And a father who’s just trying to get back home, but can’t because of the Monster Minds. [Halloween Oooo]

    Kids, this is the story of how this botanist’s wet dream of a show came to syndication.

    Who brought this show to life?

    Was there going to be a movie?

    Just what is a Storm Sailor? Is it like, when it’s raining men?

    All these questions, and more, will be answered in this look at JAYCE AND THE WHEELED WARRIORS!

    He’s the world’s best-known crime fighter. He wears a mask and no one knows his true identity. He’s busted up car rings, recovered kangaroos, diamonds, and barely avoided crashing a plane. And that was just his first adventure! Get ready for Batman!

    Not Batman? Who? Oh, that guy! You know, I used to play, “Phooey Phighter”. The cat always saved the day.

    Anyways… Time to take a look at a dog turned janitor turned bumbling crime fighter. Even if he hurts you, you’ll thank him for his service.

    Get out of your filing cabinet as we explore the ins and outs of HONG KONG PHOOEY!

    Okay, here’s the 4-1-1: A bunch of guys and one woman put on masks and take on different personas. Sounds like the cartoon version of “Eyes Wide Shut”. That might be worth exploring!

    Kids, this is the story of how this turbo-charged show came to syndication.

    Is there a movie in the works?

    Was this show the unholy child of “The Transformers” and “G.I.: Joe”?

    Just what was the Penetrator?

    All these questions, and more, will be answered in this look at M.A.S.K.!

    So, the story is about a group of kids who hang out with the teacher and go on adventures that defy space and time. The kids are from a diverse background… Wait! This sounds familiar. Oh, and one of the characters is played by a well-known celebrity. I didn’t realize I was going to talk about “The Magic School Bus”, but here we go.

    It’s not “The Magic School Bus”? Rick Springfield?! Fine. It’s time to sit back and explore MISSION: MAGIC!

    I miss you, Miss Frizzle!
